George made a lot of mistakes....... but this was not one of them. Shoehorning Yoda into the conclusion feels off. It would make more sense to show him in Degobah BEFORE Padme's funeral so that it was kepyt separate from the Skywalker conclusion
The 2005 theatrical release is the “director’s cut”. Lucas had complete control over the prequel chapters - and they still sucked (imo). He had plenty of time to come out with extended versions, if he chose to, but he chose not to (with the exception of THE PHANTOM MENACE), instead, released a portion of deleted scenes from each chapter as “bonus features” on the home video releases.
Fun fact. Did you know Yoda actually had 2 huts on Dagobah? One fir the wet season and one for the dry season. During the wet season his guy would get flooded so before that season came he trekked across the planet to higher ground to his other hut. This is from the CERTAIN POINT OF VIEW book.
Yes, yes they did. I used to complain about some of the things Lucas did. Now I would love to hear that he bought it back. Even with some help from trusted sources. I'd rather watch hours and hours of Jar Jar picking his nose than anything Disney has done.
You are absolutely right. I watched The Force Awakens and felt like going to sleep. Disney made "Star Wars", if you can still call it that, more of a comic joke instead of triumph over defeat as the original storyline went. Disney which used to produce quality entertainment certainly didn't have"the force" in making the following films after "Revenge of the Sith".
I like better what they did in The Clone Wars. Qui-Gon Jinn invited Yoda to Dagobah a few weeks earlier in the timeline. And there, Yoda learned a fundamental truth about the Force that the Jedi had not known before. I'm glad they left it out of the movie.
@@rcdune7132 Here's the thing, the Jedi WERE dumb, so that happening is completely in character for them. Think about it, their fear of Anakin led him to becoming Vader, their insistence on being involved in republic politics is quite literally what got them killed. Yeah, they're dumb, stupid even.
@rcdune7132 Just to be sure, the Force always knew that the Jedi Order would be destroyed. The entire galaxy is affected by how the Force is wielded upon it by the Jedi and Sith Orders. Order 66 removed the Jedi Order so that only the Sith held power over the galaxy; that's the "imbalance" in the Force. At least 22 years before Order 66, the Force knew about it and the imbalance it would cause, so it gave a prophecy about a Chosen One restoring balance. Since no one had any foreknowledge of Order 66, no one understood the prophecy. The Jedi Order couldn't even know what it meant to "restore balance to the Force" without foreknowledge of Order 66. And because the Jedi Order had some hard-core problems within it, the Force allowed, and might have been responsible for, the Jedi Purge. It showed that future to Syfo-dyas, later to Anakin on Mortis, then to Yoda in vague images, without details. Yoda was shown the Order 66 deliberately so that he would understand the assignment that the Force was giving him, to learn to become a Force ghost and help produce a new Jedi Order without the strongly entrenched dogma. And Yoda began his assignment in The Empire Strikes Back until Kathleen Kennedy interfered with Yoda's assignment and came out with the sequel trilogy. So I don't get what is supposed to be "dumb." The only "dumb" part that I see is the fact that the sequel trilogy writers didn't pay enough attention to the Star Wars story to finish what Lucas had always been setting up since the first scene of The Phantom Menace.
Yeah Luke really got the shaft in this deal. Leia goes to a planet of abundant resources, normal climate, and a life of luxury. Meanwhile Luke goes to a planet with 2 suns and gets to sweat to death.
Not to mention it was incredibly risky, considering that Tatooine was Anakin's birth planet and he and the Emperor knew of Anakin's step family, Owen Lars. What if somehow the existance of Anakin's and Padme's children came to light? Tatooine would have been the first place they would look for them. Luke could have been much safer and have a much better life living with his sister Leia.
I couldn't believe they cut out Yoda landing on Dagobah. It was just 30 seconds longer, not even a minute. I was actually waiting for him to go to Dagobah when I first saw this in theaters.
But demonetized means good stuff for us/viewers since we don’t have to watch annoying ads. But if you pay attention, no copyright infringement intended doesn’t stop copyright claim
I don't have any issues with this. Yoda is a massive part of Star Wars and this fits the ending of RotS especially placing it before the Luke and Leia scenes. I like it
It's a great scene and you show how it really would have fit in nicely. A problem with the ending was that George really forced in all the explanations for where everyone went. It's less of a movie and more like ge's crossing off items on a list. I think it would have been interesting if we see Padme die, the droid says "twins" then it cuts to Obi Wan giving a cover up story to Bail Organa that she and the baby (singular) didn't make it. Maybe followed by a wary look at someone who appears to be listening in. Then the funeral. Then in the montage you end it with a shrouded figure giving the baby to Owen and Beru.
I can see why they left it out as it gives the fans information they would already know and may also foreclose on story opportunities for something set before he gets there.
timing wise, makes sense to show yoda before padme's funeral, but that implies hope... that we already know exists... (it's just a flex/curtain call for your CG department in the early 2000s).... they made an amazing movie (starting w/ the ship fight)! the end of the movie was were hope fades... the Queen is dead. the Jedi have Fallen and the darkness of the Empire overran the galaxy... timing is an issue w/ this scene in the middle... have we taken into account the actual logistics of the space travel time to dagobah? (and the outer rim where they built the death star?) one thing nobody every took into account was the map of the SW Galaxy and multiple solar systems in it. light speed only goes so fast...
The scene works. If it was left in then it would have reflected on the entire cast, especially as Palpatine, Obi-Wan, Bail, Owen and Beru were already part of those scenes. But removing Yoda’s scene does reflect on the Skywalkers and regulates the rest of the characters (with the possible exceptions of Palpatine and Obi-Wan) to secondary roles.
It doesn't particularly hurt the movie including Yoda's arrival on Dagobah, but it raises a question. Assuming he arrived alone, where is his ship by the time of "Empire Strikes Back"? Hidden? Sent off-world with a droid pilot? It creates something of a plot hole, in my opinion.
In this age you have yodas scene post credits. One day a directors cut with added/new scenes via Ai or like the Darth vs obi death fight would be cool. It's money is Disney's pocket so not sure why they wouldn't do it. And throw the new trilogy in the non cannon universe and bring back the old cannon stuff. And redo the latest trilogy as cannon and take on George's ideas.
Yeah, it kinda does. It adds to the hopeful aspect. I think he wanted everyone to feel the loss of anakin at the end. The heroes are gone. There’s nothing but hope now. Yoda ran, no need to show it, everyone knows where. While it’s always cool to see more scenes, ROTS was supposed to feel like a loss at the end. And it did. When I first saw it….i didn’t like really like it. I was pissed at anakin. lol. But that was the point. Nice job tho. Keep at it bro, you do well
So figuring that Luke is what, at least, 20 when the events of episode 4 take place, it takes another two decades to complete a Death Star that looks half completed. Whereas they built a second one between the time of episode 4 and episode 6-which is what, two years? I think that Desth Star under construction is very forced-no pun intended. Vader will spend a long time doing nothing but being the Emperors enforcer. The Death Star is still a long way off in the future. Or do you think the Republic was building such a Doomsday machine, in which case, they’d be little different from the Empire.
I actually don't like the way Revenge of the Sith ended, tying everything together almost too neatly. Showing Yoda arriving at Dagobah immediately implies that he literally did nothing for 20 years til Empire Strikes Back. And actually showing the births of twins, and naming them, completely ruins the viewing experience for newer generations who might mistakenly watch in Episode order. If they simply showed the births, but left out the names, it would have been better. (I realize very few people on earth will not know Luke & Leia are siblings, but for newer generations, they all have to learn somehow and it's better that they learn the truth in Empire/Jedi as intended rather than in ROTS.)
As much as I hate modern Disney, I think that it is fair enough for Disney to be the only one that makes money from Star Wars, they are the owner, that's it. RU-vidrs that make Star Wars content should not be making money from the Star Wars videos. 🤔
So basically, Obi-Wan unknowingly and unwillingly created Darth Vader as we all know him, not Darth Sidious, who planned on and intended on having the loose cannon sidekick in a dark robed, suitless human form. Instead, his eery augmented, "more machine than man" form took shape after Obi-Wan literally handicapped and disabled him.
I think the addition of Yoda's arrival should have been included. In my opinion, it brings certainty and closure to his failure, or the failure of the Jedi. I mean, in my opinion, that scene makes it perfectly, that this is now Vader's rule (well actually Palpatine's but Vader is the XO so everybody is going to see and obey him.)
The scene would have made a difference if the movies were released to theaters in chronological order. Since they were not, and we already knew where Yoda went, it doesn’t add anything to the plot. I don’t think including it would’ve detracted from anything, so it would’ve been a wash for me. When I watched ROTS in the theater, I wasn’t consciously thinking about “oh, let’s focus on the Skywalkers”
@@StarWarsAnalystTrue Some are great Ideas however to much is also why Disney got away with Destroying SW Disney did Better with SW Mini Series where Disney should have stayed Shame on GL
Yep… they even banned people from donating to me… I had to make a video appealing their decision. I thought I made a flawless argument, but they disagreed… ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-28LO4meHBUo.html
Lucas made the wrong call. Padme's scene wasn't particularly needed and she is the only character that isn't in the OT given an ending. By that logic yoda should be in.
Thanks for this edit. I really like your inclusion of Yoda. It sets all the pieces on the board for episodes 4-6. Great stuff and sorry about the demonetization. WOTC goes after the D&D folks too. Kick the fans, what a great strategy.
1st time New viewer here. Thank you for the video, and your great work here. I truly enjoyed it. Thank you again. P.S Im Glad to know that you are free to create videos and free from the Hands of Emperor KK and Her Dark Empire. Looking forward to more videos. May The Force Be with you!
Disney will never own star wars no matter how hard they try to change things with their garbage the acolyte, star wars will always belong to it's true fans
Two and a half minutes into a five minute video and you still haven't got to the damn point of the video, you haven't ruined Revenge of the Sith but you sure killed my interest in seeing the end of your video.
I'm pretty much willing to bet money that Disney didn't demonetize your channel because of your videos or their content, but rather your sabers. They just hate competition of any kind.
I'm sorry they did that to you! I can see why the yoda scene would be gpod or bad. On one hand it's the major players that we will see again. On the other hand we don't see yoda till e5! I know we don't see the emperor until 5 either, but he didn't have a solo scene! Thank you for all the hard work you put in! I have listened while doing hiuse work, baking, or to relax for awhile now!
@@StarWarsAnalyst Interesting. Was that intentional, or just a retroactive explanation for an error made by Lucasfilm? 😂 That being said, it is a damn good explanation. I think there were a lot of symbolism in the prequels that, if George had been a tiny bit more explicit, would've been phenomenal. IE Symbolism of the three villains, or the emperor throwing all of the pods down at Yoda representing the fall of each system.
I know it’s insane… I had to make an appeal video but they somehow rejected it I thought it proved my case very well 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-28LO4meHBUo.html
@@StarWarsAnalystSolid response to them. I'm sorry they've done this to the channel. YT are completely out of whack lately, and have been on a steady decline ever since they were purchased by Google...
Once again the true Sith Lord has revealed herself. Smashing out any sense of creativity, storytelling, and analysis but for her world view as a creepy control freak.
